I have been watching dogs and cats for as long as I can remember. I am always the one who was told to watch the dogs or the neighbors or the family friends. I never did mind it though. I love animals. All animals are so beautiful and amazing. I have always been a very big animal lover.
I began pet sitting for neighbors when I was 9 years old. Now a college student, I have handled childcare and pet sitting for dozens of pets and families. Pets large and small for overnights or as much as a month long vacation. I would love to work with your pets!
